Yep. Any Triumph which has a separate engine and gearbox is called a Pre-unit, as in Pre-unit construction. Early ones were Magneto ignition and 6volt Dynamo for lights, like mine.Later ones had an alternator in the primary case and ran 12volt.The beauty of running magneto ignition, is that you can get rid of the battery to simplify the bike.

Spot on with the picture BTW GM.

Got the VTR painted today (it was yellow before) bottled out of the Britten colours, so done it white . I'll post some piccies when it's back together, after ripping the harness out (carbs see ) and rewiring it more simply - along with a CBR fuel pump coz they get a bit starved at high rpm apparently

I've got an NC30 under a cover in the garden & it's coming into the front room for some TLC this winter... I'm lobbing an old sofa bed to make room, so if anyone wants it feel free to collect!!! Not sure if the NC will be road or race; probably a bit of both... It's not a Triumph, but it is iconic...

I'll swap you a new sofa bed for the NC30.

I always wanted an NC30... I always wanted a reverse cylinder TZR250... Then my dad bought a late model Aprilia RS250, I took it for a ride and wondered why I would ever want a peaky two stroke... Especially when I have an S1 (and XB12R) that runs as smooth as the skin of an attractive young lady...
